I own nothing...

"I feel strong," Caroline said as she and Klaus walked the streets of Paris, "Like I can do anything." Caroline had only been a vampire for a week.

"You do have your limits love," Klaus said, "One piece of wood to the heart and you are dead. Not that I am going to let that happen."

"My hero," Caroline said kissing his cheek.

"I have been called many things, but never a hero," Klaus said and Caroline smiled. "I will never let any harm come to you."

"What if you tire of me?" Caroline asked. Klaus rolled his eyes.

"I don't think I will ever tire of you," Klaus said, "I enjoy you too much."

"Ever?" Caroline said and then asked, "Even let's say in a thousand years?"

"Ask me then," Klaus replied.

"You actually think I am going to live to be 1000?" Caroline asked.

"I will make sure of it," Klaus vowed and Caroline kissed hm.

K&C

Caroline was sitting in between Klaus's legs on the couch taking to Kol when Rebekah made her entrance. Or better yet, walk of shame.

"Well, well, well, there's our girl," Kol said getting up and facing his sister who was wearing the same thing she had been in the night before.

"Get out of my way," Rebekah said as Kol kept blocking her path.

"Out all night, what a scandal," Kol said not giving up, "Please tell me you did better then that …Matt."

"Get out of my way or the next thing to come out of your mouth will be your teeth," Rebekah said brushing past him. "Don't start Nik." Caroline looked back and saw Klaus was smiling.

"I didn't say anything," Klaus said.

"Well, how was it?" Caroline asked and Rebekah glared at her.

"Our sister is a strumpet," Kol said sliding into the chair, "But at least she is having fun. I need entertainment."

"Wait are you waiting for?" Klaus said and nodded to the door, "Go on have at it."

"It's not fun to go alone," Kol said, "Join me Nik, it is the least you can do after sticking a dagger in my heart." Caroline laughed.

"He has you there, love," Caroline said.

"Okay, why not," Klaus said getting up and taking Caroline with him, "I didn't have nearly enough to drink last night what with you trying to murder Rebekah's date." Klaus kissed Caroline quickly before he left with Kol.

"Not you too Elijah," Rebekah said turning to her oldest brother.

"It's not that," Elijah said, "I am worried about mother..."

K&C

"I wish there was something I could do to help," Elena said and Elijah looked at her for a moment.

"There is...leverage," He said and then Caroline and Rebekah appeared behind them.

"So you either go with them, or spend the night in the tunnels, your choice." Elijah said and Caroline held her hand out. Elena walked over and took it.

"Don't bother trying to escape," Rebekah informed Elena as they entered her house, "It has been spelled so you can't leave. I don't get it why everyone will bend over backwards to try and save you, no matter it just makes you the perfect hostage."

"I..." Elena began but Caroline cut her off.

"Don't bother," Caroline said, "Rebekah is the jealous type."

"Then I bet she is really looking forward to killing me if Esther succeeds," Elena said.

"Rebekah won't kill you if they fail," Caroline told her, "I will."

K&C

"He has Elena," Damon said to Stefan as soon as he walked in.

"Actually she is with Rebekah and Caroline," Elijah corrected, "And you know how Caroline gets at the thought of anything happening to Klaus. If something happens to him she will not hesitate to rip Elena's throat out. So if you want to save Elena's life I need you to help me stop my mother."

"I am a little rusty on killing 1000 year old witches," Damon said.

"Even when killed my mother doesn't seem to want to stay dead," Elijah said, "Not with the spirits of nature at her side."

"What are we supposed to do?" Stefan asked.

"My mother is drawing power from the bloodline of the witches that released her," Elijah replied, "That line needs to be broken."

"Broken?" Stefan repeated.

"He means..." Damon said making a motion of slashing someone's throat.

"You want us to kill them." Stefan said.

"I would do it myself but they would see me coming and know my intent but they won't expect to be harmed by you," Elijah said, "That and I have no idea where they are. In any case you have till six minutes after nine to find them."

"Oh how super specific of you," Damon said sarcastically.

"By that time the moon will be full and my mother will have the power to kill me and my family. If you do not stop her before then Caroline will kill Elena," Elijah said walking towards them, "So we all have our time line. I suggest you get started."

"Caroline won't kill Elena," Damon said, "They're friends."

"That might be so," Elijah said, "But Caroline loves my brother more then anything. She will do whatever it takes to save him and our family, even kill her friend. Good luck."

C&K

"I am always on watch duty," Caroline said with a slight pout,"I'm bored." Her eyes brightened, "I know what we can do." Caroline ran and then came back with a bottle, "I know where he keeps the good stuff."

"You want to get drunk?" Elena asked.

"No, we are going to get drunk," Caroline said, "If they don't stop this we might all be dead by morning. Might as well make the best of it. Come on Elena if I do have to kill you, the alcohol will make it not so painful." Caroline got three shots and handed one to Rebekah and then Elena. "Here is to living or dying..."

"Living or dying," Elena repeated and the three drowned their shots.

"Okay so who is the better kisser," Caroline asked Elena sometime later. "Come on you must know."

"They are just different," Elena said taking another drink, "Stefan is more loving and I just feel so safe when he is holding me. Damon though kisses like this is the last time we might ever see each other and wants to pour all his feelings into one kiss." Rebekah and Caroline giggled.

"What about you Beks?" Caroline asked, "What do you think?" Rebekah threw a pillow at her. "I really hope they stop this, I don't want to kill you Elena."

"I don't really want to die," Elena said and then started to laugh, "Though I have died before and it wasn't so bad."

"Here is to have already died before!" Rebekah yelled and they all drank. They started laughing again.

"Oh Elena lets dance!" Caroline said suddenly, "We need to show Beks today's music isn't so bad."

"Okay," Elena said and got up.

K&C

"We need to separate them," Damon said.

"How?" Stefan asked.

"Got an idea," Damon said, "Come on." They went into the grill where Damon pretended to be getting a text. "It's from Elena. Apparently Caroline is freaking out and crying about Klaus dying."

"She sent you a text?" Stefan asked playing along.

"You know Caroline has a soft spot for her, probably let Elena keep her phone," Damon replied and just like Damon thought Klaus told him brother he would be back in a minute he needed to call Caroline. Klaus went outside and the brother's made their move.

K&C

Rebekah suddenly fell to the floor and Caroline felt a pang in her heart. Caroline put her hand to her heart as if it could stop the ache. She snapped out of it and went to Rebekah's graying body.

"No," Caroline said shaking her head. Had they succeeded? Shouldn't Caroline be dead too? Elena just looked at them bracing herself to be attacked. It was not as if she could run away. All of sudden the life came back into Rebekah. "Beks." Caroline said her voice filled with relief. "Klaus." Caroline went and crawled to her phone. Still having a slight buzz she dialed the number.

"I'm fine love," Klaus said in greeting, "Just keep an eye on Elena."

"Do I need to kill her now?" Caroline asked.

"Not yet," Klaus replied, "Her boyfriends still have some time."

"Come back," Caroline said into the phone, "Just please come back. If we have to die come be with me in our last moments."

"We are not dying let love," Klaus said, "I promised you a thousand years remember?"

"I remember," Caroline said, "I love you." They hung up.

K&C

"If you've come to plea for your life I'm sorry you've wasted you time," Esther said.

"What about Caroline?" Klaus asked his mother as she stood safe inside the circle with their brother, "She did nothing to you. Break the bond and let her live."

"I am afraid I cannot do that," Esther said, "Caroline will kill everyone in this town if you die, and then we both know she will take her own life. I am truly sorry for her, but I cannot risk her need for revenge."

K&C

"You can go, the spell is lifted," Caroline said to Elena a little later, "They were able to stop it."

"How?" Elena asked.

"The bloodline needed to be severed," Caroline said gently, "One of the witches had to die. Your friends mother is in transition."

"Abby?" Elena said shocked and Caroline nodded.

"Go home and give Bonnie some time to adjust," Caroline said.

"Home?" Elena said her eyes watering, "What home? My parents are dead, all of them. My brother is gone, and now my best friend won't ever forgive me."

"I'm sorry," Caroline said while Elena began to cry. Caroline walked over and hugged her. "You look tired." Elena nodded. "Do you want me to take you to the Boarding House?"

"I can't deal with them either," Elena said, "I am so tired of all of it."

"I'll take you back," Caroline said, "I'll stay with you..." She was interrupted by the sound of the front door opening. When Klaus, Kol, and Elijah appeared Caroline ran over and literally jumped on Klaus wrapping her legs and arms around him. If had been a human he probably would have fallen from the force. She kissed him soundly.

"You're okay," Caroline said happily. "We're not dead."

"No," Klaus said, "They keep trying and they keep failing."

"Hmm..." Caroline said hugging him tighter. "I am going take Elena home, make sure she is okay," Caroline said finally letting go of him.

"Weren't you going to kill her an hour ago?" Kol asked.

"Yes," Caroline answered, "But we are all alive so now I don't have to."

K&C

"I'll stay here till you fall asleep," Caroline said to Elena.

"Is there a way to break your bond?" Elena asked. Caroline smiled softly. Elena was trying to save her from dying too if they kill Klaus.

"Elena if Klaus is dead I have no reason to live," Caroline told her, "Even if it were be broken and after killing everyone in sight out of the pain of his loss I will feel, I'll walk into the sun."

"You would give up your life for him?" Elena asked.

"He has my heart Elena," Caroline replied, "And no one can live without their heart."

K&C

"No," Caroline said after Elijah told her he was leaving, "No, stay please."

"We aren't really meant to be a family Caroline, not anymore," Elijah said, "At least there seems to be peace between us. Except for Finn of course."

"I'll miss you," Caroline said hugging him, "Promise to come back and see me."

"I promise," Elijah said and handed her a letter, "Give this to Elena for me."

"Okay," Caroline said.

"Goodbye Caroline," Elijah said and gave her a kiss on the forehead. Caroline walked into the living room where Rebekah and Klaus were standing in front of the fire.

"What's going on?" Caroline asked.

"It isn't over Caroline," Klaus said showing her the picture.

"Is that..." Caroline began. Klaus had taught her how to read the ancient language.

"Yes," Klaus answered, "The tree that can kill us."

….
